TTT

1. I got it to snap!! I'm now able to bend my knee and this morning, although its still very sore, I got it to snap back into place! Yeah!!

2. The wasps are back. I didn't get up early enough to apply death spray. DH gave me the ok to call in a professional, but I still want to unload the can of death spray I bought first. I should just stop messing around and call in a pro. There's probably a huge nest in the attic I can't see.

3. Our friendly neighbor has asked us to help her tend her garden in exchange for fresh veg! Such a great deal! She's also offered to pay the boys to water when she's away.

4. I couldn't make it through the Golden Compass movie. Bored me to tears. I asked DS12 if the book was this boring and he said the movie was skipping tons of stuff that's in the book. Still don't know if I want to read it though.

5. Got my mom's Mother's Day card in the mail. It must not be late ever! Several years ago, all 5 of her children neglected to send a card in time. The only card she received was from my cousin! Shame on all of us!

6. Timberdoodle- I got a free catalog at the homeschool conference and only 19 pages in I've spent over $100. As with every purchase I'll mull it over for several days but perhaps I should start Christmas shopping early? www.timberdoodle.com

7. I've been too busy reading magazines to read books. Is this a bad thing?

8. Saying my prayers my van makes it another 40,000. Had the oil change done knowing it was low and still leaking. Oil Change guy says I should still be good to go, but I'm at 190,000 miles. I know it could happen any day. We can't afford a new (used) car right now. If I lose my wheels, I'll lose my job as well. I need to keep looking for a job I can walk to or figure out a home based business

9. My favorite paint is on sale through the end of May. Problem is, I can't choose colors. I stand there like a deer in the headlights, leaving the store with every single swatch stick. The only one that jumped out at me was a green for my kitchen- which is already painted green and doesn't need another coat just yet.

10. My anniversary is in two days! DS12 has offered to babysit if DH & I want to eat out.

Glad you got your knee popped back into place. I hope it's smooth sailing from here on out with recovery! :)

I saw where the Golden Compass was coming out on PPV. I talked about watching it. If it was that boring I may skip it. I remember when all of the hub bub came out about it and how Christians were saying not to see it. I like make up my own mind when it comes to films............

What is your favorite plant??

Happy early Anniversary and Happy Early Mother's Day!

Going check out the Timberdoodle site. :)

Hope your van holds up a little while longer. :) Maybe you can get that home business started up sooner than later :)

I'm painting my kitchen green :)--Scotland Isle to be exact.

Glad you knee is better and continues on that path.
Happy Anniversay.
When l picked my color, l choose one color from a picture l had and had the store match that shade.
Good luck with it.

Glad your knee is feeling better. That is a nice deal with your neighbor. Wish my family ate veggies. I love salad. Timberdoodle is great. I've ordered from them before. Good luck with your van. Hope it lasts for you. Happy early anniversary! That was sweet of DS12 to offer to babysit. Have a great week!

Glad your knee is getting better! EWWWW Wasps! I hate them! Have a very happy anniversary and I will keep your van in my prayers. :-)

Glad your knee popped, I hope it continue to heal and the pain subsides. I hate wasps and if they are a big problem it is a good idea to call in a professional, we had a nest once inside the attic wall of a house, so gross. I love Timerdoodle, now I just need to win the lottery to buy my wish list.

Happy Anniversary Early
